The East Coast Environment Foundation (ECEF) is a Virginia Beach based non-profit foundation which strives to promote traditional conservation and cultivate harmony between nature and society.  Established in 1992, Jim Parker founded the ECEF as a means of leaving the world a better place than he found it.  For almost 30 years, the ECEF still seeks to uphold Jim Parker’s vision by adhering to our core values of conservation, education and wildlife rehabilitation.
